#aviation #bonanza
Some time in April 2022 this video came across my RUclips feed and the next day I signed up for flying lessons. My biggest challenge turned out to be getting the FAA medical certificate (thyroid cancer survivor). I persevered and got my PPL April 2, 2023 and bought a Cessna 182 a month later. My IFR check ride is scheduled in November and I’m planning on Commercial, CFI,CFII after that. Flying has been a life long dream and I finally realized it at 43 years old. Now my family and I enjoy flying cross country to visit friends/family and going to fly-ins and air shows. We are planning on going to Oshkosh in 2024, hopefully my two girls catch the aviation bug 🤞. Thanks for giving me the motivation to follow my dreams.
It really doesn't look that difficult BUT I know it is.......
happy birthday!!@@michaelt3308
so happy for you!!!
yes ok@@segan9905
Pretty much my story too (except I'm about a year behind you). Congrats! And thanks Stevie for inspiring us.
One of things that is impressive about Stevie is that she doesn't hesitate to ask a controller to repeat an instruction; safety before ego.
Well, it's the guys that tend to put ego in first seat.
And everyone knows ladies will ask directions before the man will.
@@jameslanning8405 ego it's important too, that why men have accomplished a thousand and thousand wonderful things and women have not.
@@michaelsullivan3549 Ego has killed more pilots than mechanical failures.
@@geberhart000 ego doesn’t kill. Ignorance does..
@@michaelsullivan3549 says someone who has probably not accomplished anything
Imagine being bored and take off to see your friend on another island using your very own plane. This is how crazy life can be
yeah not likely this is in the wheelhouse of many "normal" folk
If you end up w/ 6 figures, sure. the house is prolly like 700k and the plane probably hundreds of thousands. A plane with gears like that are basically a luxury. I've never flown one with retractable gear.
@@georgehunda649 yeah it's insane how out of reach splurging on a pilot license is for most people.
@@georgehunda649 - Seems to me, if you want to make the big bucks, then you can, if you FIND a way to get trained for something that pays well. It's work to do so - I know that from personal experience - but in general, I've found that if you want something badly enough, you will find a way to get it. It won't be easy, and it won't necessarily be quick, but it can be done if you are willing to work at the training and be disciplined enough to learn what you need to learn. It took me a dozen years of going to school part time while working to earn a living, raising a young child, and dealing with a marriage that definitely was NOT made in heaven, but I did it, and graduated with a B.S. in computer engineering when I was 35 years old. If I can do it, so can you!
@@andrewbauer5201 most people don't put all their effort into achieving their goals. i mean this chick clearly ate off a silver spoon, but just saying.
I love the way the checklist is done, it's all spoken through and pointed at along the way
I love that HOT BABE!! LOL
The Japanese originated the point and articulate checklist method for Japan Railway. It’s extremely effective in enhancing the function of the checklist and one of many reasons why JR is both safe and on time. Love seeing Stevie use the method. That’s one smart woman…
What she says is on auto?
Checklists equal safety. Well done.
Can’t imagine the number of young women you are going to inspire. Great job!
none? How many random women are going to see such videos? TIme to start sharing.
@@americanswan as if someone has any women they are socially connected with that are thinking of learning how to fly, have the money, the time, and interest. Almost none. These people are almost always born into it. May as well be thinking you alone can inspire someone to be an astronaut.
Yea, “AOPA live” videos don’t even hardly reach a whisper of interest every week and this one is already over a hundred thousand views. Somebody over there needs to figure out that old men flying planes is just boring as fk and no one cares but a cute girl in shorts can make millions easily.
What's up with all these negative Nancy's in the replies?
@@PurtyPurple haters seem to be everywhere
as a wanna be pilot, this was NOT boring. Watching you be so professional, and proficient on a fun trip is inspiring. This is a very cool video.
I am a man of 60 years of age, I have had a fear of flying since a long time ago. on every trip, not being able to sleep, stomach ache and panic seemed to be the most frightening qualities that I had. but by looking at your flight and how you cope with flying, for the first time could travel with much less fear. I want to thank you very much from my heart. Wishing you all the happiness and success for you
I was on Flight Simulator the other day and decided to fly around Cedar point and decided to land on an island runway. As I landed I kept thinking it looked really familiar. When I reached the end of the runway I recognised the house and remember watching this video.
Love how professional she is with her checklist usage and procedures! Also unbelievably cute.
I don't know protocols being a pilot, but she sounds like astronaut level on checklist procedure, it's cool!
@@haldyordan2316 Sounds like she learned from the guy who flies in Papua New Guinea. They use the same type of procedure.
Yeah but you know she wears overalls to do that stuff when the cameras aren't on.
@@goodlookinouthomie1757 if you cant contain yourself when a women wears shorts and a tank you should get some help fam.=
@@dm1972 That isn't my point, obviously. I only clicked because I saw a hot chick on the thumbnail and so did you.
I grew up flying with a family friend in his 1956 Bonanza. Such good times. Glad you are out there keeping the dream alive. Blue skies!
Beautiful flight, excellent landing and most of all your safety checks and rechecks out loud are a great example for us learning pilots. Thank you!
This woman seems like a very conscientious and safe pilot. I love her attention to the checklist.
I"m 75 now and was in Army Aviation in Georgia and in Vietnam.
My dad had a Piper Tri-Pacer when I was a kid and we flew to Texas and Oregon many times. He even bought a Tri-Pacer that had been flipped in a windstorn and bought spars and fabric, rebuilding it himself. The neighbors would come over and have a beer in the back yard as dad was shrinking the fabric to the completed wings with a hot plate. He paid a lot of attention to the checklist and, in the air, we were all tasked with watching for other planes.
My wife wondered why I wasn't bored flying with Stevie from Michigan to Camarillo. I think because we had flown into Albuquerque and I remember taking a long time to get over the mountains when we departed. The Tri-Pacer wasn't a very powerful aircraft but easy to fly.
@StevieTriesenberg I Saw your trip to Oshkosh and have been so damn inspired to get my license. When I was 16 & finished my chemo for Hodgkin's I started flying with my uncle. He passed away a few years later and no one else in the family could fly so they sold his plane, and because I wore glasses and was "Sick", I let people tell me I could not do this for a living. I am 50 now and as I go through my ground school lessons and the 3 hours in the air thus far, I want to leave my job, get my PPL, get my instrument rating & commercial license and somehow turn this passion into a career. All because of you and that interview with the FAA and your RUclips and the clever TikToks. SO THANK YOU for inspiring an old man to reset his life and live his passion. You are my inspiration.
Great story Joseph! Your words written here will inspire many who themselves are looking to change their lives. I wish you good health and clear skies my friend, may you find a way to live this everyday!
So many incredible creators to inspire us. I’m glad you found one that pushed you over the line. Best of luck to you!!
It's never too late my friend. Don't let anyone discourage you! That's the worst mistake you can make. My family never supported me when I was younger and now that I am old enough to save up money with or without their support I am striving towards my passion which is to become an airline pilot. Good luck my friend.
Dude, awesome that you're getting your PPL. A bit of advice, if I may: please DO NOT underestimate recreational flying. Don't go thinking that professional flying is a must in order to fulfill your flying aspirations. I'll let you in on a little secret: professional flying is, at the end of the day, a job. Like most jobs, it can (usually does) get old after a while. Recreational GA flying is where it's at. Go get a tailwheel endorsement, or a glider rating or seaplane rating. Go tow gliders, go flight instructing. There are so many way cool things to do in GA.
Watching a pro at work here. Any pilot who tells me they loves the check list is my kind of pilot. Thanks for sharing.
I see guys not do their checklists all the time. One guy almost crashed a few weeks ago. He tried taking off with 30 degree flaps. It was a super close call.
I enjoy listing to you on how you go through all of your checklists verbally and you fly the plane so naturally and your are amazing
Wow. This just turned up on my feed. How awesome was that! I haven’t experienced anything quite like that from my screen! Great sounds! You made it look like a beautiful walk in the park! You’re all over it Stevie. Absolutely brilliant. I haven’t felt so safe in my life. Hahaha. I’m still scratching my head. Where’d this come from. Kudos from NZ.
Really excellent video, the consistent and meticulous attention to planning, checklists and details is outstanding.
You do an awesome job making aviation cool to young people. Keep up the great work!
I am always impressed at how Stevie handles her flight. I love that she speaks through all checklist, ask for repeats and is clear with her communication. I hope that my future instructor will turn me into Stevie, because right now I am confused on all lingos
Just stumbled onto your channel. Very well done. Really love the flight into the island. Also love the way you take care of your plane. Very inspiring.
Living the dream Stevie. You totally rock as a very professional pilot, I'm sure there are a number of viewers who would love to be in your situation. I am rather at the other end age wise (68) but get my kicks flying a paramotor. Love the channel. x
Didn't you hear?? 68 is the new 48!!
@@KelleyBroussardMackaig Very kind and thoughtful comment, Kelley👍🙂
You are so awesome, what a boss. I love how you are doing something that I never would even consider (because i’m pretty much terrified of everything) and you seem so calm and chill as if it’s no big deal.
I'm fasting but after eftar i tell you some thing ok
@@777Transcontinental must've been a long fast
@@jaybesseck1665 😅😂😂 i forgat what iwould say
aha ok ithink i will say she is beautiful.
@@777Transcontinental , yes, she is. However, your paedophile rapist murderer false prophet MuhamMAD would have oppressed and enslaved her just like the women in Saudi Arabia. عابر القارات, WAKE UP, and stop following EVIL
Yes,I often wondered weather small craft pilots could listen to music and use their phone. Thanks for sharing that.😁
You go, girl! Very professionally done; I really like the way you stick to your checklists.
That looks like a weekend well spent. Cool vid. Never knew about Kelley's Island. Looks sweet!
Incredible form! You killed those checklists. 🤘
How fun to see you here!!!
Thanks Tucker! Made em myself! Hahaha
@@bayflight hey Stevie loved your video. I seen you in a interview a while back would love to see you talk more about your journey from your license to your plane your very passionate about it.
Well well, fancy seeing you here @tucker. Hey Stevie, ever fly out of Willow Run, KYIP? I used to! Live 5 min away.
Welcome to OH-IO. 😂😎
I haven't flown since my son was born in 1985 but I watch a lot of flying videos on RUclips because I miss it so much. I really enjoy watching Stevie. She looks so small in the cockpit and flies that hot Bonanza as though she was born in it! She handles herself with aplomb and self-confidence. You go girl! Keep your wonderful videos coming.
What an amazing life you have. It's great to see a little of the destination as well. Keep up the great work and content!
Just caught your move to Cali video part 1 and so thought I'd check this out, not realizing it was Kelly's island until I started it. As a 9 yr old standing at the fence watching planes fly over my head I was fascinated. Out of all the vacations and States we traveled to. Kelly's island will always be the vacation I cherish the most for many reasons, one being riding around in a golf cart and standing at that runway. I can't wait to see more videos.
You are such a precise pilot. I really enjoy watching you fly, Stevie.
Seriously she is!! When she said “we love a good checklist” I said yesssss 😂
Usually I can keep my envy in check, but it's out of control right now. That was so impressive and it looks like it's more fun than can be put into words. I do enjoy watching people do their 'job' when they are good at it, and when they are serious about it. Great video, top to bottom! I think I need to subscribe.
Such a pleasure watching your professionalism and confidence. And your checklist dedicated carefulness, every time. Wonderful girl. 👍🌞💙
Must be incredible living off a runway! Awesome video, thank you
What a fun day! I love your commitment to checklists.
For 15 minutes, I took time out of busy, normal life to share this relaxing and beautiful journey. I only know it wasn't a dream because I could see it with my own eyes!
And to top things off, the quote of the day: "and there's my friend's house"!!
Absolutely idyllic .
Seriously so much fun to watch! You are living the life sister! 👍🏻👏👏👏👏
You're an excellent pilot, definitely living the dream!
it was fun watching you live the dream… I stayed through the whole video I love the Bonanza and all aircraft . The closest I got was around six hours stick time with friends… But I love aviation so I build and fly radio control. I never got my license but I still maintain the dream in other ways. You look excellent behind the controls very very efficient and cautious. Your a great pilot. a personal thank you for sharing this flight with me
Miss Stevie, with your great smile its never boring to ride along with your videos. Safe home, always.
You’re awesome Stevie I’m enjoying all of your videos!! I start flight training in may and I’m so excited!
That was very fun to watch! Good pilots make it all look so easy.😊
Wow... Awesome to see young people enjoying life to its fullest, and girl you got some skills seriously on top of it!
Absolutely perfect landing - pure butter! First time viewer, when I saw how young you looked I wasn't expecting anything but a rough landing but you impressed me with that gorgeous drop onto the runway. Well done Stevie! I gotta subscribe and watch more of your videos!
So glad I found your channel. Beautiful old Bonanza and the 140A is a dream.
just another day , visting a friend, via a god damn airplane, totally relatable
Absolutely love these videos. It's so rare to be able to see all the practicalities like pulling
the aircraft from the hangar and the checklists
including physically checking the exterior.
This is amazing! Great video. Your professionalisim is second to none!
Stuff like this truly inspires me. It's amazing what life can be like when you put the effort into making it awesome.
It's amazing what life can be like if you're born into the right family.
@@KLienne you know the family she was born into?
not all hawe this kinda oportunities in LIFE!
When life seems really crappy, (as it can these days), this video is such a crystal clear reminder of what life is, or hopefully will be again soon! Its relaxing, freeing, and just a terrific pause in my day! Thank you!
Absolutely agree :D This video gave me the same hopeful feel :)
unfair?
Her videos make the viewer feel good!
Such a great plane. Those old Bonanzas are really special.
God bless you😍 Thank you for showing the world a portion of your amazing life. It looks so fun
The coolest pilot I seen so far ! Keep up the good work !
Gorgeous Bonanza absolutely amazing, congratulations Steve!!
Damn I have been flying once as a young kid and got my young eagles certificate and watching you do this makes me want to fly again. Enjoyed this video!
This is such a beautiful channel, thanks for sharing ure adventures with us !💖🙏🏽sending everyone sm love 💖💖
Love your style! Verbally going through your checklists is a fantastic habit!
Never boring… You are so polished it’s a joy to see and hear. The proficiency you demonstrate is a goal we all want to strive for. And I have to comment, what a very calm and collected pilot.
You're a super sharp pilot. I still watch other's fly and I fly for a living. You fly a good plane. Keep up the great work
Awesome little plane and a most careful pilot! keep that checklist going! 👍
The care after having the “baby” back to its hangar just showed us The Love & Feeling only aces have! Congrats, from Brazil! 😉💐🍾🇧🇷
Some of these camera shots are so nice. Great editing too. You don’t have to know how or even want to fly to enjoy these videos!
Never thought I would miss general aviation after 25 years flying 121. Great vid and Thank you:)
I've only just found this... and I think it might be my instant new favourite channel. It's like a Miyazaki film come to life. Everything about it is just magical.
I have been wanting to get my PPL for about a year now. Your videos are inspiring me to get it DONE!!! Thank you.
That is a gorgeous plane. Even the interior looks great.
Just found your videos! Very inspiring! I’m far too scared of heights to ever attempt this… but I can imagine how amazing it feels if you are not. Well done you! 🙌
I just started my ground school for Sport Pilot. You make it look so easy. Thanks for the inspirational video
Wow, I really want to experience the feeling of mastering the sky. Thanks RUclips for recomendation and I love your video so much. Keep it up my friend 💖
As an avgeek, I thought it was pretty cool to see someone at such a young age fly such a great bird. You inspire so many people with your content. I even fly in flight simulators so I will see what it will be like once I fly in the real world.
Not sure how I stumbled across this video, but love Kelley's Island -- have visited several times to camp at the state park when our kids were young. That's the first place I've been where I've seen a stop sign and an aircraft crossing sign on the road!
Great job! Keep the videos coming, I love the checklist.
Awesome👍. I enjoyed watching you flying, having probably lunch and ice-cream and next cleaning your aircraft. Thanks for sharing
Great video and brings back good memories of fun days there. We would bring our Harley over on the ferry back in the day.
I'd love to learn how to fly. I've only flown once in my life on a plane. I flew in a helicopter when I was 5yrs old, but that was 42 yrs ago... so I don't remember it really. This is only the second pilot video I've watched, and I'm impressed. And wow, that island looks really nice! What an amazing place for your friend Robbie to live. Too cool. And you are just too cute. Great job all the way around 👌 Thank you 🙏
Excellent video quality. Beautiful scenery. Great flying.
I had a dream about flying a Bonanza last night and came across this video this morning. Great camera angles and editing. Fun fact, the Bonanza has been in production longer than any vehicle on earth, since 1947
Stevie you rock! That was an excellent video! Nice landing too! I learned a few things from you today! Thank you!
Especially loved the landing, so damn smooooth.
Fantastic video Stevie, blue skies to you from here in London!
Enjoyable video, thank you.❤
I'm a 68-year-old woman who was fascinated by planes as a kid (my aunt and uncle lived just off the runway of an Air Force base); I wish there had been a Stevie in my life to show me that a girl could fly, too! Keep up the great work - there ARE plenty of young girls who are finding their way into the cockpit, despite what the greybeards would like to believe; the world changes, and you're helping to make that happen. Be safe, and be well, and keep doing what you love!
Tricia, there IS a Stevie in your life, you've watched her! And not only COULD a girl fly, but a girl CAN fly, even at 68! Go get started!
I started watching pilots recently and now I want to try to fly. You are awesome. I hope Indiana has good flying because thats where I have to start.
I really want to learn to fly, this was great to watch, and made the whole process seem so much more... accessible? I feel slightly less intimidated after watching :)
Nothing like hopping the fence, taking the airplane to go shopping or visiting a friend on an airport strip. I can related. Great post and nice flying.
Very nicely done - both the flying and the video editing. Stay safe!
Amei tudo.
Adoro ver os aviões, mas tenho muito medo também ,mas você me deixou até com vontade de voar, tamanha a sua tranquilidade.
E o cuidado com a aeronave nota 10.
Parabéns.
Very professional and relaxed. A pleasure to watch an aeroplane being flown well!
Brings back memories 😁. My uncle use to fly a Bonanza. He ran Harrison county airport, (OH), with his wives family, they lived at the airport. Amazing way to grow up ❤.
Wow I randomly came across your video, awesome I subscribed immediately. I'm older, even though I've been a passenger numerous times on commercial airlines I'm definitely not a good flyer, I get super nervous flying but watching you definitely calms my fears a little. 👏!
Great Video... Tunes were awesome! We need more 21C on RUclips.
Thank you Max! And don't worry - lots more 21C RUclips content coming soon!
YES!!! Definitely more 21C on RUclips please!!!
Maxxxx I seeee you! Going after the ladies
@@AviatorMark p
Agreed; what are the tunes?
I'm jealous, you are absolutely amazing Stevie.. you are a triple threat, Beautiful, You Can Fly, and You're Smart! But
most of all you are safe! God Bless You Stevie, & keep
flying! ✈️✈️✈️
This was so cool....Loved your order and process...so safe!
Checklists! That's what's been missing from my life. Got it. Thank you.
Also, that was a pleasant video.
The Bonanza gives so many great retro vibes... I want home decor with the same design ethos. Contemporary yet Bonanza is my requirement!
Thanks for making these videos and taking us along with you Stevie, it's much appreciated. I hope many young girls will watch your channel and be inspired to do what you are doing, to follow in your footsteps and know that they can do whatever they want to do in life!
Amazing video! Love a beautiful vintage bonanza
Stevie,
I am living my aviation life thru you !!! As a fixed wing (O-1 Birddog) and rotary wing (OH-6, UH-1) crew chief during the Vietnam era I grew to love flying. Many of the pilots gave us stick time which was a highlight of the day. Unfortunately family and financial restrictions prevented me from getting my pilots license. I enjoy your videos immensely, you are very talented and professional. In those immortal words from Top Gun….”You can be my wingman “ Safe flying
Ron
Great video! Just did my 1st solo and it was an insane feeling. Much respect in video editing and aviation skills! Keep it up! Inspirational!
Congratulations on your solo! Be safe and have fun!
Great video! I got my first ride in a small aircraft in a V-Tail back in the 80's, yeah I'm an old fart. But that ride prompted me into getting my private license and years of flying. I love your aircraft, always have a soft spot for your first ride I guess. Also great to see a young lady at the controls, I always told my two daughters they could do anything they wanted. I recently went for a heli ride and the pilot was a young lady, I told her it was great to see her flying and she told me she still has men who refuse to fly with a female, crazy right? Sorry, old guy rambling, thanks for bringing back some awesome memories for me and as always, keep the blue side up.
Great to see young people in general aviation still. I flew back when it was TCA and ARSA, instead of B and C. Trained in the Tomahawk and flew Senaca III’s back in my New Orleans days. Gas was a LOT cheaper then ! Enjoy it while you’re young !!
Great trip I enjoyed it. Thanks for letting us fly with you. Becarefull be safe. Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones. 🌲😎🤗😇🌲🥶
